Queensgate Mall - Earthquake Damage Update

As Earthquake work continues at Queensgate Mall, Lower Hutt, Event Cinemas is expected to re-establish itself in the shopping mall, once its quake-damaged building is demolished and subsequently rebuilt.

As reported in www.stuff .co.nz contractors are in the process of tearing down the cinema complex, as well as a 300-space car park, after it sustained significant damage in last month's magnitude 7.8 quake.

Demolition work is expected to be finish by late February 2017

  • aibGROUP client update – FENZ levy changes from 1 July 2026

    News

    The Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) levy helps fund essential fire and emergency services that protect all of us, our homes, vehicles, personal contents, businesses, and communities. It is a contribution we all make through insurance policies. While insurers and insurance advisers collect the levy through insurance policies, it is important to know that the amount itself is set by legislation and sits separately from insurers own premium pricing. From Wednesday, 1 July 2026, changes to the Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) levy will come into effect across many insurance policies throughout New Zealand. These changes form part of the new FENZ levy regime and will impact residential, motor, commercial, marine, and specialist insurance programmes.
